yes. I I run the script from the ZMI logged in as admin it finds members, but if I try it from an XMLRPC client it does not

You're sure you haven't got an access control problem and that your xml-rpc client is not running up as Anonymous?

Yes the client is not loggin in. (and since it will be a commandline script it is not supposed to do). If I hardcode some bogus data to be returned it works fine. But as soon as something in the catalog is searched it does not work. So the xmlrpc works. If I run the script from the browser (with default parameters) logged in as Manager it works. So the functionality works. But really searching for something through xmlrpc does not work. If I copy & paste the code in an (ZODB) Python script which I give the Authenticated proxy role it works perfect. So I suspect the conclusion is that the external method lacks that proxy role.... -- __________________________________________________ "Nothing is as subjective as reality" Reinoud van Leeuwen reinoud.v@n.leeuwen.net http://www.xs4all.nl/~reinoud __________________________________________________
